Dinky Toys

Interesting site showing several toy companies that manufactured Cadillac toys. Even a Russian one.

Serious?!!!...what a great thing to have.

I recall having some Dinky toys when little. I was obsessed with them.

I wasn't aware until a few years back that it was a UK company, had

presumed it was American.

Yes, picked it up at a flea market about 10 years ago... in really good shape, almost no chips. Met. blue w/ red interior, white rubber tires, front axle turns left/right, jeweled headlights. I've built up a nice collection of diecast over the years, ranging from vintage Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky, Mebetoys, Solido, to more recent Hot Wheels, Johnny Lighting, Greenlight, Tomica and Siku and lots in between...all scales. Unfortunately, my collection is in 5 different places in 3 states currently. My plan is to get everything together in one place in a couple of years..
